Earth's gravity and the various gravities of the planets mentioned in the Noble Quran and confirmed by science:

With this said, let us now look at what Allah Almighty Said in the Noble Quran:

(a)-  The balanced universe:

Allah Almighty mentioned in the Noble Quran the following scientifically proven facts:

1-  The universe "is full of paths and orbits".  The universe's orbits' system, the moon's S-shaped orbit around the earth, the sun's and the moon's different paths, and more in the Noble Quran.
    

2-  The universe is kept balanced by a balance that Allah Almighty has put:

"Indeed it is Allah Who holds the heavens and the earth (under control), and keeps them from falling into disarray. There is no one except He, Who can hold them together, should they break loose and deviate. Of course, He is the most Forbearing, the most Forgiving!  (The Noble Quran, 35:41)"

"(Oh mankind)! Are you the harder to create, or is it the heavens which He built?  He raised its vault high, and gave it balance.  (The Noble Quran, 79:27-28)"

"He raised the SKY far above, and set up a (perfect) BALANCE.  (The Noble Quran, 55:7)"

The balance of gravity that Allah Almighty has put on earth, and its relationship with our atmosphere's Ozone layer, and their relationship with the counter gravities in space, including the moon, is what perfectly keeps our sky up without either going down or going up, and also is what keeps our Ozone layer a protective roof (as Allah Almighty precisely Said about it).  This is the Balance that Allah Almighty mentioned in the Noble Quran.  If such Balance between gravities didn't exist, then even our air and Ozone Layer would've vanished into space and life on earth would've been impossible, and if there was a prevailing gravity from earth, then our air pressure would've been unbearable, and everything on earth would've been just too heavy; not to mention also our moon would've eventually collided with our planet since it is only approximately 360,000 miles away.

(b)-  The invisible pillars:

13:2 الله الذي رفع السماوات بغير عمد ترونها ثم استوى على العرش وسخرالشمس والقمر كل يجري لاجل مسمى يدبر الامر يفصل الايات لعلكم بلقاء ربكم توقنون

"It is Allah Who raised up the heavens by other than the pillars that you see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord!  (The Noble Quran, 13:2)"

-- OR--

"It is Allah Who raised up the heavens by (a force) different from the pillars that you (normally) see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord!  (The Noble Quran, 13:2)"

-- OR--

"It is Allah - by a force (see sub-section 'ii' below for ample Noble Verses and proofs) - Who raised up the heavens without pillars that you can see. Then, He mounted the throne and tamed the sun and the moon _ each is in motion for a specified time. He conducts His affairs and He explains His signs. Perhaps you will acknowledge the scheduled meeting with your Lord!  (The Noble Quran, 13:2)"

ب  = by (referring in this context to an invisible force, which makes it read as "by an invisible force").    

غير  = different from.

عمد  = pillars.

ترون  = that you see.

ها = it.    

Note:  In Arabic, references such as [you, your, yours, he, she, it, they, we, us, his, hers, theirs, they, them, him, her] are all part of the word.  They are not separate words as in English.  Also, terms such as [that, hence, in, not, is, was, are, by, thus, will, would, shall, should, so, therefore, to, the, so that, through] are also part of the Arabic word and not separate as in English.

(i)-  Further analysis on Noble Verse 13:2:

Question:
الله الذي رفع السماوات  "It is Allah Who raised up the heavens....(13:2)"  How is Allah Almighty raising the heavens?  What force is Allah Almighty using to lift the universe and to keep it in a balance as clearly mentioned in the ample the Noble Verses above, 35:41, 79:27-28 and 55:7?

Answer:
بغير عمد ترونها   "with a force different from the pillars that you know of....(13:2)", and this force is the force of gravity and the balance between gravities in the universe that keeps the orbits in order by Allah Almighty's Will until their due time.  When their time is due, the following will happen to them:

"The Day that We roll up the heavens like a scroll rolled up for books (completed),- even as We produced the first creation, so shall We produce a new one: a promise We have undertaken: truly shall We fulfil it.  (The Noble Quran, 21:104)"

This is referring to the 'Cosmic Crunch' that scientists have proven will happen.  You see, Allah Almighty mentioned the 'Big Bang' which originated the universe and how the universe today is constantly expanding in size:

"Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?  (The Noble Quran, 21:30)"

"And the firmament, We constructed with power and skill and verily We are expanding it.  (The Noble Quran, 51:47)"

After all of this constant expansion reaches its maximum, then the Cosmic Crunch will occur and the universe will shrink.  And this is when "The Day ye shall see it, every mother giving suck shall forget her suckling-babe, and every pregnant female shall drop her load (unformed): thou shalt see mankind as in a drunken riot, yet not drunk: but dreadful will be the Wrath of God.  (The Noble Quran, 22:2)"

(ii)-  How do we know that Allah Almighty meant "force" here?

Aren't you inserting "force" into the text??

Allah Almighty used such expression many times in the Noble Quran.  Let us look at the following Noble Verses:

"Oh you who believe! Do not be like the unbelievers. About their brothers who travel in the land or go into battle, they say, “Had they been with us they would not have died. They would not have been killed. “ Allah has let such notions be the source of (sorrow and) a bewailing (mournful) lament in their hearts. It is Allah Who gives life and death! And Allah watches everything you do!  (The Noble Quran, 3:156)"

"Because it is Allah Who wraps the night over the day, and rolls up the day over the night. Surely, Allah is All-hearing and All-seeing.  (The Noble Quran, 22:61)"

"It is Allah Who created you as a frail and feeble form _ (an infant). Then He lets your weakness evolve into strength. After that, He (again) makes your strength dwindle into a state of weakness _ a senile old age! He creates whatever He wants! He is all Knowing, the Omnipotent!  (The Noble Quran, 30:54)"

‏‏35:41 ان الله يمسك السماوات والارض ان تزولا ولئن زالتا ان امسكهما من احد من بعده انه كان حليما غفورا

"Indeed it is Allah Who holds the heavens and the earth (under control), and keeps them from falling into disarray. There is no one except He, Who can hold them together, should they break loose and deviate. Of course, He is the most Forbearing, the most Forgiving!  (The Noble Quran, 35:41)"

Furthermore, and again, Allah Almighty Said that He Created everything in the Universe and maintains it through due balance:

"Indeed it is Allah Who holds the heavens and the earth (under control), and keeps them from falling into disarray. There is no one except He, Who can hold them together, should they break loose and deviate. Of course, He is the most Forbearing, the most Forgiving!  (The Noble Quran, 35:41)"

"(Oh mankind)! Are you the harder to create, or is it the heavens which He built?  He raised its vault high, and gave it balance.  (The Noble Quran, 79:27-28)"

"He raised the sky far above, and set up a (perfect) balance.  (The Noble Quran, 55:7)"

"It is God Who has sent down the Book in Truth, and the Balance. And what will make thee realise that perhaps the Hour is close at hand?  (The Noble Quran, 42:17)"

According to Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najjar, Allah Almighty in Noble Verse 13:2 talked about an invisible force that is lifting the Heavens.  The key word here that we must pay close attention to is غير  which literally means "different, " "other than," "not," or "without" in Arabic.  See the Noble Verses is sub-section "b" below.  Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najjar also said that there is a Divine reason as to why Allah Almighty explicitly mentioned the force of "pillars" (as pegs and pillars were the only known terms for support back then) that is invisible and didn't just say "It is Allah who raised the heavens without pillars."  In other words, Allah Almighty told us that there are invisible reasons that only Him, the Almighty who is in full control of, as to why the heavens are raised and why its celestial bodies wouldn't come down crashing upon us, such as our moon, for instance, coming down crashing on us.  This invisible force that is controlled by Allah Almighty is what we call today "gravity".

There is an intentional reason as to why Allah Almighty talked about an invisible support or force that is "holding" the Heavens!

(c)-  The Arabic word غير  throughout the Noble Quran: 

As mentioned, غير  literally means"different, " "other than," "not," or "without" in Arabic.  There are a total of 150 Noble Verses that use the Arabic word, and every single one of them used it for a condition to negate another.  Let us look few examples of how the Noble Word was used throughout the Noble Quran:

‏1:7 صراط الذين انعمت عليهم غير المغضوب عليهم ولاالضالين

"The path of those upon whom You have bestowed Your blessings! Not the path of those who earned Your wrath, or erred and went astray.  (The Noble Quran, 1:7)"
 

‏2:59 فبدل الذين ظلموا قولا غير الذي قيل لهم فانزلنا على الذين ظلموا رجزا من السماء بما كانوا يفسقون

"But the evildoers changed the word that was prescribed to them, to one that was quite different. Therefore, from the sky We sent down a blight upon the evil doers, because they used to disobey repeatedly.  (The Noble Quran, 2:59)"
 

‏2:61 واذ قلتم ياموسى لن نصبر على طعام واحد فادع لنا ربك يخرج لنا مما تنبت الارض من بقلها وقثائها وفومها وعدسها وبصلها قال اتستبدلون الذي هو ادنى بالذي هو خير اهبطوا مصرا فان لكم ماسالتم وضربت عليهم الذلة والمسكنة وباؤوا بغضب من الله ذلك بانهم كانوا يكفرون بايات الله ويقتلون النبيين بغير الحق ذلك بما عصوا وكانوا يعتدون

"And (remember) when you said, “Oh Musa! We are weary of just one kind of food (all the time). So call your Lord for us and ask Him to provide us with what the earth produces _ the herbs, the cucumbers, the corn, the garlic and the onions. (Musa) said, “Do you want to substitute the superior (and the sublime) with that which is petty _ (the mean and the mundane)? Go and settle in any town, and there you will find all that you ask for.” Disgrace and wretchedness were decreed for them. They drew the wrath of Allah upon themselves, because they repeatedly rejected the revelations (and signs) of Allah, and (because) they killed the prophets without a reason! Because they disobeyed, and used to stray beyond the bounds!  (The Noble Quran, 2:61)"
 

‏2:212 زين للذين كفروا الحياة الدنيا ويسخرون من الذين امنوا والذين اتقوا فوقهم يوم القيامة والله يرزق من يشاء بغير حساب

"The (temporal) life of this world has been made attractive and adorable for the unbelievers. So they scoff (and poke fun) at those who believe. On the day of resurrection, far superior to them would be those who fear (Allah, and are dutiful). Allah gives (the provisions) without any limit to whom He pleases.  (The Noble Quran, 2:212)"
 

‏2:230 فان طلقها فلا تحل له من بعد حتى تنكح زوجا غيره فان طلقها فلا جناح عليهما ان يتراجعا ان ظنا ان يقيما حدود الله وتلك حدود الله يبينها لقوم يعلمون

"If he divorces her (for the third time), then she shall be unlawful for him thereafter, unless she weds another man and he (too) divorces her. (In that case), there is no sin upon the two if they come together (in wedlock), provided they think that they can observe (and stay within) the bounds of Allah. These are the bounds of Allah, and He expounds them for the nation that understands.  (The Noble Quran, 2:230)"

2-  The different and well-measured gravities that exist in every planet, every star and every galaxy that keep the entire Universe swimming in circular motions, perfectly, without going out of balance:

Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najjar [2] spoke in great details about this in his Arabic video.  Soon, insha'Allah (if Allah Almighty is Willing), I will provide thorough details from renowned Western sources, as I always do, and in English, demonstrating and proving the PERFECT BALANCE that Allah Almighty talked about in the Noble Verses above, which is none other than the balanced gravities of the celestial bodies in the universe and the perfect system that Allah Almighty put which allows for those bodies to swim in circular motions so perfectly without spinning off and getting lost and causing ciaos.

And again, the balance of gravity that Allah Almighty has put on earth, and its relationship with our atmosphere's Ozone layer, and their relationship with the counter gravities in space, including the moon, is what perfectly keeps our sky up without either going down or going up, and also is what keeps our Ozone layer a protective roof (as Allah Almighty precisely Said about it).  This is the Balance that Allah Almighty mentioned in the Noble Quran.  If such Balance between gravities didn't exist, then even our air and Ozone Layer would've vanished into space and life on earth would've been impossible, and if there was a prevailing gravity from earth, then our air pressure would've been unbearable, and everything on earth would've been just too heavy; not to mention also our moon would've eventually collided with our planet since it is only approximately 360,000 miles away.

3-  Conclusion:

Again, the Noble Quran is filled with scientific statements and notions.  These are statements of Allah Almighty describing how He created things on earth and in the Universe.  What's most amazing is that all of these scientific statements and notions had been proven to be in perfect agreement with science and our modern-day scientific discoveries.  Allah Almighty made the Noble Quran be Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him) Everlasting Divine Miracle and proof for Prophethood.  The Holy Book certainly stood the test of time 1,500 years ago with Its Claims, Prophecies and Miraculous language eloquence, and it does again and again in our day today with Its overwhelming agreement with science and discoveries that were not known to man 1,500 years ago.

Allah Almighty Said: "We will soon show them Our signs in the Universe and inside their selves, until it will become quite clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things?  (The Noble Quran, 41:53)"

In regards to gravity and the balance, Allah Almighty talked about the invisible force and invisible balance of gravities that He uses to hold the universe up and to keep it perfectly balanced.  The Universe was not known to man 1,500 years ago, and no one knew about its cyclical systems, orbits, the expanding universe, the big bang and the future cosmic crunch of the universe, the speed of light, the water cycle and the fertilizing winds that without them rain would never be possible, low air pressure and lack of oxygen in space, the egg-shape of the earth, the earth's motion, the Ozone layer and it being our "protected roof", the moon's S-shaped orbit around our planet earth, the breathing cycle on our planet, the mystery of iron, and so much more that our video, audio and text files above thoroughly demonstrate.  Yet, the Noble Quran's Divine Claims about all of these and more were all proven to be in perfect agreement with science.
